Well, now that the Hairpiece is the presumptive Republican nominee for president, here's a small taste of what we're in for.
First:
And the punchline:
Proud of leaving a disabled woman beside the road with a wrecked car. Yep, sounds like a Republican to me. I hope she sues him and takes his damned truck and everything else he has -- he's in clear violation of the Civil Rights Act.
It gets worse:
White supremacists are real big on Trump.
And via Digby, this, from Right Wing Watch:
And this:
As Digby notes: "And keep in mind that Trump has been promising to bring a lot of new people into the process ..."
One more:
Yes, I know about #NeverTrump. Right. The Republicans will fall into line because they are about power and want to stay in control of Washington by any means necessary. And Trump will start making deals.
Update: What did I say?
They're already falling into line.
And excuse me, but when has a Republican administration brought economic and national security? Eisenhower is the only one I can think of, and the country would have been fine no matter who was in office in the '50s -- we were the superpower, and the post-War economy was going gangbusters.
First:
Cassy McWade was involved in a car crash near Asheville, North Carolina, and her family called their regular mechanic to drive 45 minutes north from his shop to haul her wrecked vehicle back for repairs, reported WHNS-TV.
Ken Shupe, owner of Shupee Max Towing, arrived about an hour later and began hooking McWade’s car up to his truck — until he spotted the Sanders campaign sticker on her bumper and the yard sign placed in her rear window.
“He goes around back and comes back and says, ‘I can’t tow you,'” McWade said. “My first instinct was there must be something wrong with the car, and he says, ‘No, you’re a Bernie supporter.’ And I was like, ‘Wait — really?’ And he says, ‘Yes ma’am,’ and just walks away.”
And the punchline:
“Something came over me, I think the Lord came to me, and He just said, ‘Get in the truck and leave,'” Shupe said. “And when I got in my truck, you know, I was so proud, because I felt like I finally drew a line in the sand and stood up for what I believed.”

It gets worse:
Police are trying to determine whether a notorious white supremacist left threatening leaflets on vehicles in a Sacramento neighborhood.
The leaflets warned against “white genocide” — a white nationalist slogan — and threatened targeted violence against Muslims and Hispanics, reported the Sacramento Bee.
The fliers urged “white resistance groups and lone wolves” to activate the “hundred little death camp policy” and begin slaughtering Muslims and Latinos in the U.S., Europe and Russia.
“If you have not secured a body dump-site, do so now!” the leaflets warn. “Kidnap, rob, torture for information and execute all Muslims and Latinos. Leave no survivors.”
White supremacists are real big on Trump.
While we wait for El Rushbo to weigh in with his victory dance, let's have a look at what Grand Wizard Duke had to say about the win.
The former KKK leader said that Republican elites have been working to undermine Trump just as they worked against him when he ran for governor of Louisiana as a Republican in 1991. He particularly took issue with Trump’s former Republican rival Ted Cruz taking money from a “Jewish leftist commie,” arguing that Jewish financiers are bent on “destroying the Republican Party” by targeting people like Trump and himself.
And via Digby, this, from Right Wing Watch:
Donald Trump’s presidential campaign has been energizing and electrifying white supremacists, and their excitement is hitting new highs now that he is clearly the Republican Party’s presumptive nominee.
The neo-Nazi site Daily Stormer, which endorsed Trump two weeks after his immigrant-disparaging campaign launch, is filled with posts celebrating the GOP candidate’s victory this morning. “White men in America and across the planet are partying like it’s 1999 following Trump’s decisive victory over the evil enemies of our race,” says one post, which also celebrates that “[t]he Jews are in full-on freak-out mode.”
And this:
The fires of nationalism, the fires of identity, the fires of anger against the corrupt establishment are arising all around Europe, all around America, all around the entire world. So we just need to strap in, because the future is gonna definitely be interesting, and I believe we could have a switch in our direction even more…Hail, Emperor Trump! And hail, victory!

One more:
A Washington, D.C. Muslim woman says she was attacked by a Donald Trump supporter while sitting outside a coffee shop, WJLA reports.
The woman, who did not give her name, is African-American and wears the hijab, a head covering that devout Muslim women wear. She told WJLA she was sitting outside a Starbucks on April 21. Police have since released surveillance footage that shows the woman yelling in the victim’s face, then returning with a bottle of liquid and dousing her.
“A Caucasian lady with blond hair walked right past me,” she told the station. “Then as soon as she sat down she started talking about me. Saying ‘F-ing Muslim. Trash, worthless piece of Muslim trash. You all need to go back to where you came from.”
Yes, I know about #NeverTrump. Right. The Republicans will fall into line because they are about power and want to stay in control of Washington by any means necessary. And Trump will start making deals.
Update: What did I say?
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell says he's committed to supporting Donald Trump's presidential bid.
But, the Kentucky Republican wrote, he has expectations of Trump -- who he said "now has the opportunity and the obligation to unite our party around our goals."
McConnell said in a statement Wednesday night that he plans to support the real estate mogul, who became the GOP's presumptive nominee once Texas Sen. Ted Cruz ended his campaign after losing Indiana's primary on Tuesday night and Ohio Gov. John Kasich then dropped out of the race on Wednesday.
"I have committed to supporting the nominee chosen by Republican voters, and Donald Trump, the presumptive nominee, is now on the verge of clinching that nomination," McConnell said.
"Republicans are committed to preventing what would be a third term of Barack Obama and restoring economic and national security after eight years of a Democrat in the White House," he said. "As the presumptive nominee, he now has the opportunity and the obligation to unite our party around our goals."
They're already falling into line.
And excuse me, but when has a Republican administration brought economic and national security? Eisenhower is the only one I can think of, and the country would have been fine no matter who was in office in the '50s -- we were the superpower, and the post-War economy was going gangbusters.
